I can recall one of the last times I used tinder and caved to their “pay me” prompts, those likes I got but couldn’t match on, completely disappeared once payment went through. They were plain, outright lies by the app to convince me to pay to see them.
In my area, these “subscription “ car wash places have nearly replaced all the diy car wash places. I think there’s one still in town, the rest are just empty stalls now or overflow parking for nearby businesses.
And of course, people like myself, with 10yo+ cars can’t utilize them. Memberships typically have a caveat that your car can only be so old to go through the automatic wash. Guess I gotta buy a new car if I don’t want to wash it with a bucket and hose 🤷♂️
Thankfully the ones I encounter the most are in an already pedestrian heavy area. The city has also taken steps in the last few years to discourage driving through that stretch as well. Speed limit is slower, lights every block, pedestrian crossings (though half are mid block without lights 👎), and new expanded bike lanes. But it still makes no sense why the walk lights don’t automatically change with the traffic lights 🤦♂️
My city surprisingly set ones up at certain intersections, where the walk lights won’t change UNLESS you hit the button. Had to get back in the habit of pressing them again
IT started as a hobby for me. My initial career was digital art/design. When I was 12/13 my dad let me have a pc, that I had to build from a box of scraps he got from work. I kept adding/upgrading that pc until windows pissed me off. Years later I kept it up on ppc and Intel Macs, when I started college. (No degree at all, went to a fancy art school and they ended up killing my program, so I just got a job instead)
I pretty much got my current job by already running a few various servers at home on arm boards and a NAS, helping with basic o365 admin tasks, and being able to crack open/max out the MacPro6,1s at work. I was only supposed to resize art files lol By the time we named a CTO, he just straight up asked me to run IT for him.

Florida? 😂 I don’t buy it. I’ve never met a Floridian that spoke like me. That was fun though!
Thank for journaling this content
I give it a few years, tops, before one of our uppity christo-fascist state politicians kills it bc they don't like one fucking title.
Or it dies bc they want control over what books can/will be included.
Now to figure out how to scan a qr on my phone with my phone 🤔
Lol “use the qr code” [Qr artifacted to hell]
You can tell he feels cool in this video

I have this issue too. Several comms that require tags, which I set filters for, nearly always come through and show in my feed
